SISO's New Coach Boat
Thanks to tremendous community support and the generosity of our donors, we were successful in our fundraising efforts and have purchased a new safety/chase boat for our youth sailing program.
Two by Twenty Two Chase Boat Challenge
SISO's number one priority is SAFETY, and one of the most important safety components in a youth sailing program is the availability and operation of safety/chase power boats while the kids are on the water. These power boats provide the ability to respond to a variety of potential emergency situations extremely quickly. SISO is conducting a major fund raising campaign to replace our two outdated and sometimes unreliable chase boats.
